Topic: Introduction
Members of the Order Overwatch,
I am Nolan Sorrento, Director of the Office of National Security of Liberty. Normally I am letting my agents take care of communications, as they are fully aware of how to handle diplomatic transmissions, however, this time, it has a very high significance. I suppose you are surprised to see a part of the Liberty Security Force reaching out to you but I am here to elaborate.
During the Nomad war, the ONS, which was always a small department, received its first important task in years. Our few operatives were commissioned into the Omicrons, to gather intel about your intentions, by that time, the Order was already declared a terrorist organization by the government due to the attack on Admiral Schultzky. Since an anomaly was able to lead ships to the Omicron Minor system, and the ONS was one of the first agencies tasked with missions about the Order, the task force Renegade eventually managed to break through the defenses and reach the Omicrons. Naturally, they encountered a large number of Order operatives who luckily restrained from eliminating our agents on point. They were told the truth about your intentions behind the attacks and wanted to rout this information back to our directorate, which was back then under control of former Director Isaac Dawinsky. The message could only be picked up by another team in Alaska, though, which routed it back to our HQ. Renegade was almost completely destroyed by a Nomad assault later on, except for one operative. Dawinsky never confirmed any allegiances with the Order when said information reached him, as it wasn't sure if it was to believe or not. When he inaugurated me into this position, though, he gave me several hints that he, despite all the public denials, knew that the Order wasn't the malicious group that everyone tried to make them look like.
That is why I am reaching out to you, I want to tell you that we in the ONS know what the truth is and that we do not treat you as an enemy. I am looking forward to your reaction on this with the hope that you are still upholding the standards that our predecessors believed you had.
